[Pkg-utopia-maintainers] Bug#651445: WPA passphrase deleted and connection forgot if you exit the passphrase dialog without typing the passphrase

[Alessio Gaeta]

Package: network-manager
Version: 0.9.2.0-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
when n-m fails to (re)connect to a stored WPA protected connection, it ask for
the WPA passphrase (wich is good to me, in principle). But the existing
passphrase is not retained in the textbox (OK, acceptable) and clicking
"Cancel" results in deleting the passphrase from keyring and marking connection
invalid (thus no more auto connection). It is a very severe usability issue,
for me, because it is very annoying to retype the passphrase (admitting you can
easily rember all passphrases...) each time wifi connection drops due to scarce
signal.
